A Queer Escapade Near Geneva Ends With Nearby Reprimand
Four youths from Geneva Franklin County left home in a single seated buggy with four horses early Tuesday driving into El Dora. The Tucker siblings and Miss Laura Wanson found work with local families while the Brown and Mannson youths secured jobs between the city and the Industrial School. Authorities detained Miss Jlanson and Mr Tucker as minors until guardians were summoned. Brown and the Tucker girl remained in town to finish their terms. The article notes no grave wrongdoing, just a misguided bid for independence tempered by parental intervention.
